If you want something that has poor reliability and is constantly in the shop, they're great. Do yourself a favor and get a 22 or earlier Tundra. The last good truck made.

I am a Tundra fan and own a 2018.

You must mean 2021 and below, 2022 is the year they abandoned the V8.

With that said the Tundra 5.7L is not without its problems and by no means a perfect engine. However, it's more reliable than most other offerings.

Check out youtube's favorite independent ex-Toyota tech doing $5,200 in repairs to a 5.7L Tundra with 118k miles...

There is no perfect engine or vehicle...

Funny. I've owned 2. 1st was a 94 (first year of the new model). I drove it for 13+ years with honestly no repairs except for a water pump. Next one ('08) was traded in in 2021. That one required a water pump and a starter.

Yeh, I guess my mechanic made a fortune off of me in those years.

Have a friend that just bought a 2024 Tundra Hybrid. Curious to see his thoughts over the next two years.
